Superstorm Sandy Recovery -- Out of State Utility Crews in NJ

I want to take a few moments and thank the many out of state utility crews who came from around the United States and Canada to help us out here in the mid-atlantic. Words can not adequately express my gratitude. I am going to focus on NJ, because it is where I live. First, I was able to get a few pictures in the last few days of a three out of state utility crews.

Here is a list of out of state utility crews that I saw in my town and in adjoining towns in NJ:

Pike Electric, I believe that it was a Pike Electric Crew that restored power to our neighborhood on Nov. 9th, thanks guys!! Some of the Pike crews were from Alabama
Henkels and McCoy Intren (IL) PenElec (Northwest PA)
Robert Henry Corp

Elliot Electric Contractors

Duke Energy (NC)

Georgia Power

Here is a video from the Asbury Park Press that I thought you might enjoy showing a couple of the tent cities set up in Ocean County NJ, for the out of state crews. Ocean County's barrier islands were among those hard hit by Superstorm Sandy. For more info see this Asbury Park Press article (also includes link to video).



Finally, a couple of articles and a photo gallery: Asbury Park Press - Nebraska Power workers going home.

Superstorm Sandy recovery: thank-you tree crews

Most of you have no doubt heard that there were a lot of trees down here in New Jersey and in other regions impacted by Superstorm Sandy. When trees come down and bring down electric wires with them, tree crews that specialize in doing utility work have to come in before the utility crews can restring the electric wires.

Yesterday morning, one of these tree crews from Asplundh were doing some work on my street. In this case, they were coming through my street after having already cleared out trees that were entangled in wires. Specifically, they were trimming trees along the electric line. I was glad to see them do this work.

As it was easy for me to do, I took the opportunity to take a few pictures of this crew, from West Virginia, doing there work. In the preceding two weeks, I saw many Asplundh trucks in my town and adjoining towns clearing trees.

I start out this series of photographs with some photos on a street near me where there were a large number of trees entangled with wires. Asplundh came through last Thursday and Friday to clear out the trees from the wires in advance to the utility restoring power on that street Saturday night an Sunday. I took these photos of piles of cut trees yesterday morning. Imagine, if you will, these same trees entangled with wires. It was a mess.

Following the photos of the cut trees you will see some photos of the Asplundh bucket trucks. Thanks to my friends from Asplundh for helping us out.

SuperStorm Sandy: these trees were cut on Nov. 8 & 9th, power restored on Nov. 10/11/12.

Superstorm Sandy -- I'm back

I got my electric power back early evening on Friday, Nov 9. Eleven days without power. All that happened to me was some minor property damage that has since been repaired. A tree down that did no damage to utility wires or house. I am lucky. As I said to a friend this morning, all that happened to me was losing power. So many in NJ and elsewhere on the mid-atlantic coast and New England lost everything. The images that I saw in my newspaper of the devastation to the barrier islands of NJ and elsewhere do not do justice to the devastation. For them the recovery will take months, if not longer.

My arborist spent the better part of ten days just removing trees from roofs. Others lost much of their roof shingles during the storm, we only lost two or three and they have been replaced. Again, I am so fortunate,

I do want to take a couple of posts to thank the tree crews and the utility crews from around the country and from our friends in Canada who have been in NJ for two weeks or longer helping us get power back. Some of these crews arrived a couple of days before the storm to be ready to help us. I do have some pictures that I'll be posting as well. I'll be writing to thank the tree crews tomorrow, Nov. 13 and will write to thank the utility crews on Nov. 14.

Superstorm Sandy -- 10 days later

A lot of folk here in NJ and elsewhere in the tri-state area (NY and CT) have been hit much worse by Superstorm Sandy than I have. All things considered while I am a tad uncomfortable at times on day 10 without power, I am grateful. Only minor damage to my house which was prepared prior to the nor'easter that hit yesterday. We only had a trace amount of snow in my area, other areas especially the shore counties of Monmouth and Ocean got 6 to 12 inches. One more cold night ahead then a tad warmer for four days. I'll take it.

The County and Township Office of Emergency Management are staffed by wonderful people and I feel cared for by both.

I am currently at a hotspot provided by the Lowes near my house, and they are getting to know me.

To all the out of state utility crews, forestry workers, structure firefighters, policeman, relief workers, etc., etc. I thank all of you for helping us out.

I don't know when I'll get my power back, and perhaps when I do I won't have the internet. If that is the case, I won't complain. I've posted articles through Nov. 14 on a MWF schedule.

Be safe everyone!

Superstorm Sandy - one week later

It is now one week after "Superstorm Sandy made landfall in New Jersey. I am sure that most, if not all of you, have heard some of the media coverage of this event. It is not my intent to rehash that coverage here. Rather, I am checking in to tell all of you that I am in day 7 without power. Our power went out within 30 minutes after Sandy made landfall in southern NJ.

I am hanging in, A little cold at times. Minimal property damage, We are lucky. I have good neighbors, and some powered friends nearby who have been a big help doing things like recharged the back-up battery for the sump pump in the basement, showers, hot coffee, refilling jugs of water, etc. The nearest town is mostly powered by now with grocery stores, restaurants, home improvement stores, other stores, gas stations (albeit with lines at times), recharging and wifi stations, free water and ice.

I am not quite sure how much longer our power will be out. And it is possible that we will get power restored and still not have internet service. So, I'll post back here where when my power and internet is restored.

I am writing this from a warm place with wifi access although the wifi is somewhat intermittent. If I am able, I'll try to post another couple of articles that will automatically post the week of Nov 12.

In the meantime, I want to take a few moments to thank all the utility crews, both in state and out of state who are working very hard to restore power to all of us in NJ. I'd especially like to thank the crew from Sarasota FL who was on my street last night who was doing assessments of the probable cause of my outage in advance of bucket crews coming through.

Lee Brothers (Cranberries), Speedwell NJ

The second cranberry grower that I visited was Lee Brothers with 130 acres.

updated on July 18, 2013: video that I had embedded here  about the Lee Brothers operation is no longer available. :-(

I got an opportunity to see a little of the Lee Brother's cranberry harvest when I visited. I understand that the Lee Brothers uses different harvesting techniques from Pine Island. I got to see them deploy the yellow crane-boom, it is on the large spool you will see being pulled by the green tractor. The harvest crew rakes the cranberries with the aid of a large blower into the crane-boom in one corner of the bog.

It was pretty cool to watch them work. I would like to thank the Lee family for taking a few moments out of their busy day to describe what I was seeing.

Enjoy these photos that I took the day of my visit to the Lee Brothers.

Pine Island Cranberry - Pt 2 of 2 - Packing House

I got to see one of Pine Island Cranberry's packing houses when I was with my friends from Downstown several days ago. Please take a few moments to read an article on the Pine Island packing house in the Pine island Scoop. Pine Island (PI) is a member of the Ocean Spray Cooperative as are the Lee Brothers whom I will write about in my next post. The truck load of cranberries that you see in one of the photos is being taken to the Ocean Spray receiving facility in Chatsworth. From the receiving facility the cranberries are trucked to one of two other Ocean Spray facilities in NJ, in Pemberton or Vineland.

Pine Island Cranberry Bogs 1 of 2

Pine Island Cranberries has 1,400 acres of cranberry bogs and has been in busy for over 100 years. You have already seen some pictures of the bog when I posted some still photo and video compilations of a Downstown Air Tractor 602 and on October 29 I wrote about one of Downstown's Ag Cats applying dry fertilizer to Pine Island Cranberry Bogs. I want to include some information on Pine Island's Cranberry harvest by linking to some of their blog articles, known as the Pine Island Scoop.

Before I do that, I should say that as I write this we in NJ are waiting for the arrival of Hurricane Sandy and whatever she will bring to the Mid-Atlantic. In early September, Hurricane Issac brushed southern NJ bringing 18 inches of rain to Pine Island Cranberry Bogs. They wrote about the clean-up and repairs in articles on September 7 and September 14.

I thought that you might be interested in reading about about Pine Island's Cranberry harvest in the words of Pine Island's blogger(s):

harvest begins
harvest is about teamwork
water harvesting
gathering

I am writing this article ahead of time for automatic posting on October 31 in case power and/or internet outages keep me from posting. If you are reading this then I am unable to get on the internet and make any revisions to the article to reflect current events. as pertains to Hurricane Sandy.

Next up: Pine Island's packing houses

Monday morning - Sandy is almost upon us

I just set up articles for automatic posting through Friday, Nov. 9 on a Monday, Wednesday, Friday schedule.

Hurricane Sandy or what is left of her as she soon transition into what is known as extra- or post-tropical will impact a large area of the Mid-Atlantic, New England and into eastern Canada. I hope that every one living in one of those areas is staying safe.

As I write this we have had 4/10th of inch of rain since the rain arrived in my neck of the woods sometime after 7 AM. The latest wind observation was 8 mph sustained with gusts up to 29 mph. Areas in south Jersey have already seen over 3 inches of rain as it started raining there Sunday afternoon with winds gusting in excess of 40 mph. NJ's barrier islands are under a mandatory evacuation order since 4PM yesterday afternoon. The next high tide is due this evening along with our full moon and the arrival of Sandy late tonight.

If any of you are so inclined, I was just checking out the Press of Atlantic City website, they have a page devoted to Sandy with a live camera at Atlantic City along with other stories that may be found on this Press of Atlantic City webpage.

I'll report back when I am able. In the meantime, I hope that you enjoy the articles that I have set up for automatic posting through Friday, November 9.

Stay safe everyone!

Sandy coming to mid-atlantic

Obtained from http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ on 10/27/12 @ 11 PM EDT

I suspect that by know most of you know that what is now known as Hurricane Sandy is due to make landfall Monday evening, perhaps as a tropical storm. At the time I write this the National Hurricane Center is call for Sandy to make landfall in southern NJ. But this could change between now and Monday evening.

There is not much more I am going to say about Sandy at the moment. But I do want to say that I am in the process of preparing some articles that I hope will automatically post on this blog for the coming week and perhaps into the first part of the following week in the event that I am without power and internet access for several days. I am continuing the series of articles that I have been writing out of my visit last week to Chatsworth NJ to see my friends at Downstown do some aerial applications of dry fertilizer to some cranberry bogs. I also got a chance to visit a couple of cranberry bogs. I have two articles prepared for automatic posting on 10/29 and 10/31(I hope), and two more that I will do tomorrow for automatic posting on 11/2 and 11/5. What I won't get a chance to do this weekend is to do some of finishing touches on these articles, that will have to come later. Nor will I attempt to do the final two or three articles in this series. Those too will have to come later.

If I am able, I will post here next week to let you know how I made out.

Red Flag and High Wind Warnings for Southern California

Obtained from http://www.wrh.noaa.gov/FXC/wxstory.php?wfo=lox on 10/26/12

While I've been spending a great deal of my time of late working on aerial applications in NJ's cranberry bogs and related reading, I have been trying to pay attention to what is going on wildfire wise elsewhere. To that end, I did notice that red flag warnings and high wind warnings due to Santa Anna winds are in effect through Saturday, October 27 in Southern California. Related articles on these warnings may be found on weather dot com and CBS Los Angeles. I found this graphic on the website for the NWS LosAngeles-Oxnard Office a short time before I wrote this article on Friday, Oct. 26.

I will admit to being somewhat preoccupied with my own preparations for Hurricane Sandy due to make landfall this coming Monday somewhere on the east coast between the Mid-Atlantic and New England. That being said, if I'll do my best to keep you informed should any larger wildfires break out in southern California.

Aerial Applications in NJ Cranberry Bogs: Air Tractor 602 in action

direct link to video on youtube

This is a compilation of stills and video that I shot last week when I was near Chatsworth NJ watching Downstown's aerial application operations. That day they were applied dry fertilizer to 700 acres of Pine Island Cranberry bogs in three hours using two Ag Cats and an Air Tractor 602.

The video starts out with a couple of stills in the loading area of the air strip near Pine Island followed by a video of the AT-602 taking off. You will then see a series of stills as the Air Tractor completes her take-off roll, lift offs, and then we move to the cranberry bog for the rest of the stills.

The pilot of the Air Tractor did a great job that day, and I got some great shots with my camera and telephoto lens.

Aerial Navigation - Precision Navigation using GPS

My friends at Downstown thought that the best way to explain how they navigate when making their aerial application runs would be to show this video. The GPS system that they use is similar to the one that you will in this video.

Enjoy.

Aerial Applications - Getting Ready

The National Agricultural Aviation Association (NAAA) video that I am embedding below is just under 5 minutes. While the title of the video is called "Getting Ready To Spray", much of what is described in the video applies to both spraying (liquid aerial applications) as well as dry aerial applications. I saw dry aerial applications last week. Downstown does both liquid and dry aerial applications.

National Agricultural Aviation Association

Last Friday I wrote about the loading of dry fertilizer into Downstown's agricultural aircraft. I want to take a step back and to introduce you to the National Agricultural Aviation Association (NAAA) . The NAAA is the voice of the aerial application industry. To read about the NAAA go to the About NAAA webpage, the NAAA has a short description on About Agricultural Aviation, and a set of FAQs.

The short video that I am embedding below is an introduction to Agricultural Aviation from the NAAA. As you will see in this video, aerial wildland firefighting operations fall under Agricultural Aviation (Agricultural aircraft operations in the U.S. including all or most aerial wildland firefighting operations are regulated under Federal Aviation Regulations Chapter 14 part 137).

Aerial Applications in NJ Cranberry Bogs: Loading dry fertilizer

The pictures that I am posting show the steps involved in loading the dry fertilizer into Downstown's Ag Planes. On this day, Oct. 17, 2012, two of Downstown's Ag Cats and one Downstown AT-602 applied dry fertilizer to 700 acres of Pine Island's Cranberry bogs over three hours. Pine Island has approximately 1,400 acres of cranberry bogs near Chatsworth NJ in the NJ Pine Barrens. I'll be writing more about Pine Island in a later post, so stay tuned. Downstown will fertilize the remainder of Pine Island's bogs via aerial application before election day in early November. If things work out, I'll be going down to Chatsworth to see this last aerial application of the season, so stay tuned.

The bags of dry fertilizer are stored in the Dry Area, a building on the Air Strip (Haines Air Strip) that Downstown uses located near the Pine Island cranberry bogs. A forklift takes pallets of fertilizer from the building out to the pad in front of the building. Each bag is lifted by the forklift over the loader bin, where one of the crew opens the bag so the dry fertilizer is dumped into the loader. Finally, the loader is moved into position next to the Ag Plane, in this case the AT-602, where the dry fertilizer is conveyered into the hopper of the Ag Plane.

I did not time the loading operation from start to finish, but I'd say that an Ag Plane is loaded in the matter of a couple of minutes. Bags of dry fertilizer are on the pad ready to go for the next Ag Plane that has to be loaded. The loader is moved back to the pad for its new load of dry fertilizer ready for the next Ag Plane to be loaded.

I need to point out what I am writing about here and in the next few posts involve aerial applications of dry fertilizer. Liquid aerial spraying is very different from the mixing of the materials to the loading to the actual aerial application (aka spraying). Another building on the Air strip known as the "wet area" is used to prepare these liquid materials. Av gas and jet a fuel is also stored in the wet area. I hope to be able to observe liquid aerial applications next year when Downstown applies liquid fungicide to the cranberry bogs.

Aerial Applications in NJ Cranberry Bogs: part 1

I had a wonderful morning with my friends from Downstown Aero Crop Services observing their operations as they applied fertilizer to cranberry bogs in the NJ Pine Barrens Two Ag Cats and one Air Tractor 602 fertlized 700 acres of cranberry bogs in three hours. I will be writing much more about my trip in future posts. For now, I am offering a preview of things to come by posting a few photos of today's operations. These photos are taken at an air strip not from the cranberry bogs.

I have a lot more pictures that I am just beginning to go through. More will come, I promise.

Each bag of fertilizer weighs 1,600 pounds.

Aerial Applications -- Agricultural Aviation: Introduction

Some of you may recall that I wrote several articles last spring about some time I spent with my friends at Downstown Aero Crop Services, all those articles may be found here. I have been reading up on agricultural aviation of late, and am hoping to write more about agricultural aviation within the next week or so. I have some irons in the fire so to speak, and when I am done working with those irons, I'll be ready to write some articles here and include articles on their shops, SEAT operations, and their aerial application operations. I had a chance to fly over some cranberry bogs courtesy of Downstown, and offered some reflections on what I had learned about ag aviation here. I am starting back on this project of learning more about ag aviation picking up where I left off last spring.

My friends at Downstown suggested that I subscribe to AgAir Update, a newsletter devoted to agricultural aviation, and gave me a copy of Ag Air Update which I read from cover to cover. I finally did so last week and have enjoyed their electronic weekly newsletters and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of my first issue in snail mail as a subscriber.

So while I've been doing some background reading and research on agricultural aviation, I thought that you might the video that I found courtesy of my new friends at AgAir Update, via their webpage. You will note that the title of the video is crop duster. I understand that the preferred term is aerial applications and not crop dusting. I'm still learning so I can't really say much more than that at the moment. Stay tuned as I take you along on my journey as I continue to learn more about the world of agricultural aviation.

More on SEATs

The other day, I ran across this article from the Argus Observer on SEATs thanks to Mike Archer's Firebomber Publications Blog. You may recall that I wrote about SEATs not to long ago, here.

I have a fondness for SEATs, and am very appreciative of the role they play in aerial wildland firefighting. I wanted to do more than post one link to an article, so I am embedding these videos that I think you might enjoy.

Thank-you Air National Guard and Reserve C-130 MAFFS

Direct link to video on dfidshub.net

In a year that may have been the worse year ever for wildfires, see this editorial from the MinnPost, four wings of C-130 equipped with Modular Airborne Firefighting Systems (MAFFS) were deployed to help aerial wildland firefighting efforts in the U.S. Each wing has a maximum of two C-130s. The four wings are:

North Carolina Air National Guard 145th Airlift Wing
California Air National Guard, 146th Airlift Wing
302nd Airlift Wing, U.S. Air Force Reserve Command
Wyoming Air National Guard, 153rd Airlift Wing

Tragically, MAFFS 7 of the NC Air National Guard, 145th Airlift Wing went down in early July killing 4 of 6 crew members. According to a Aug 28th Press Release from the U.S. Air Force, MAFFS had dropped 2 million gallons of retardant during the 2012 fire season on Aug. 24, and this was the first year since 2008 that all four MAFFS wings have been activated.

By Sept. 17, per a later U.S. Air Force press release, the U.S. Forest Service had deactivated all C-130 MAFFS. Each of the U.S. Air Force press releases describe the MAFFS program, some of you may want to spend some time reading both articles. In addition, the US Forest Service maintains a webpage on the MAFFS program.

Thank-you to all the pilots, crew, ground support staff, etc. of the four MAFFS wings for all that you did to help fight wildfires this year. 

Those who died when MAFFS 7 went in are flying in favorable tail winds. You will not be forgotten. Prayers continue for your family, friends, colleagues, and all who love you. And prayers continue for the two survivors and their families.

Conair donates Firecat to Canadian Museum of Flight

A direct link to the video, Conair Firecat comes to Langley may be found here.


direct link to video of the Firecat's arrival at Langley Field from the LangleyTimes

As I understand it, Conair Aviation based in Abbotsford British Columbia in Canada recently retired the last of their Firecat Airtankers from aerial firefighting service in Canada. Conair has donated one Firecat to the Canadian Museum of Flight. She arrived at Langley Field home of the Canadian Museum of Flight on October 5, making two fly-bys and one water drop.  See this article from the Langley Times for more info. I think that it is wonderful that a Firecat will be at this museum where she will be loved by many, a testament to her role in British Columbia aviation history. Good show!

I thought that some of you might want to watch this video of Conair Firecats in action, allow just under 5 minutes for the video.

This is a video from Paul Filmer taken from the nose of one of Conair's CV580's working one of a wildfire in Colorado in June 2012. You will see the take-off, following the bird dog (lead plane) to extend a retardant drop and the landing. Paul has a webpage for the High Park and Springer Fires (CO) including some absolutely stunning galleries of his photographs of aerial operations.

Range Fire (Banning CA)

I first heard about the Range Fire about the Range Fire from a couple of friends of mine so I thought I'd check it out. The Range Fire was broke out early in a remote area of Banning CA on the evening of Saturday, September 29. According to the Range Fire Incident Report from the Riverside County Fire Department the fire was contained at 364 acres on Oct. 1 and fully controlled by Oct. 2; four tankers and at least three helicopters worked this fire.
